4. here's some of it

A man carried a sign imploring people to cancel their subscription to The Times, and the talk radio hosts who introduced Carrere also bashed us. The truth is available only on AM talk radio these days, and I think a couple of recruits in Arnold's Army did what they had to do. They spotted protest signs in the crowd and goose-stepped over to take care of business. Not that they could have known, but the signs were carried by two Catholic nuns in their 60s. According to the nuns, their attackers snatched them away. The silencing of dissent, coming just a day after Arnold denied reports that he once said he admired Hitler, had the nuns trembling. "A sign was ripped from my hands," said Jo'Ann DeQuattro, a Holy Name sister whose sign said, "Groping Equals Sexual Harassment." "I was assaulted physically," said Sister Jo'Ann. She and Sister France White, of the Holy Child order, were headed for the exits when I saw them. Sister France had taped a sign to herself that said "Grope Free Zone." Sister Jo'Ann had her arm around Sister France to protect her. Sister France said she gave a "groping" protest sign to a man who held a "Recall Arnold" sign, and watched as he was set upon and had the sign ripped away from him. "People began fighting with him, and he was escorted out," said Sister France. As for her own sign getting swiped, Sister France said: "I believe a woman standing behind me grabbed it. A whole group of people were around us saying, 'Go home' and things like 'Get a life.' Sister France still had the "Grope Free Zone" sign taped to her when they decided to leave the rally, so Sister Jo'Ann suggested an exit strategy.

6. Wow if this just doesn't exemplify politics these days

that of the right wing variety. Don't like yer oppponet, recall him, don't like what someone says, plant leaks that endanger their family's life. Don't like what someone says at a political rally, attack them physically, whether they are old nuns or not.

7. I am SOOO pissed!

This is what it's come to. What every DUer worth his links knows: The BFEE Lives. And they continue to threaten Democracy and Liberty wherever it gets in the way.

Hope the two sisters and the others assaulted at the "rally" for Schwarzenegger will be OK. He — and his people — crossed a line today. And like Adolf Hitler, his childhood hero, Arnold Schwarzenegger lived up to his childhood fantasies by "leading" them there.



Arnold Schwarzenegger's biggest wet dream, yet.

PS: Hey Arnold! I won't forget this and neither will everybody who knows who you are!

8. Dupe, and LBN Rules.... locking

LBN Rules require that a poster use the exact title of the linked-to article as their subject line. In this case, the subject line should read "With Malice Toward Nuns, Arnold's Army Marches On."

At any rate, it's a dupe. Please continue discussion here:
